In this episode, I’m joined by Biba Smith, a London based artist with a love for colour whose work is a mix of expressionist, abstract and realism and has been displayed in famous art galleries such as The Boomer Gallery in London.

I myself am a big fan of colour, creativity and imagination and I love powerful individuals who can help bring people’s dreams to life. This is what has often drawn me to Biba’s work. So much so that I recently bought a piece of her art for my partner’s Christmas present.

It was such a pleasure to talk to the artist and delve deeper into the interests and experiences that have influenced her career.

Here are the highlights:
